2 TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE. A Qualified Suffrage for All the States % Suggested by the Writer* Th Editor: Have those who are advocating the rostrum,.,l s,i(Trage in North Carolina given due weight to the collateral effort which is now being made hi Congress to exclude illiterate nmiiignints rnit ,. (l Sflll( . s . JIS ,i on asui e of protection to the eommon "' j 11 1 1 * so " it should give comfort and encouragement to the earnest move ment which North Carolina is making for her own preservation. Bodies of irresponsible voters, like peMiferoas "mis on a In rm, are dangerous to the pultlio welfare and good order. Fur thermore, residents of whatever nativ 1 ' s Hitus, who do not read <>i of the country. :i:nl manifest no inclination to lenfii': who have no resect whatever for its tradi 11011s. nml would not undor.stnnd them i t >e\ had: and who have not suffieieti property holdings to keep them to theii allegiance. have logically no right to a voice in its councils, or a hand in its policy If possible they should be ex cluded altogether. To adjust the sttf tiage. therefore, on a basis of equality ami public safety is the problem of the hour. It is gratifying to he able t<> report good progress. I'our postulates are now conceded wliieh wore not admitted ten years ago: 1. Hint the bestowal of suffrage upon the negroes (universal suffrage!, was a mistake, and that as an ameliorating proposition it has miscarried, whatever might be claimed for it as a political I actor. Hence, it behooves u> all. for tin* good of the body politic, to undo as speedily as possible the mischief which has been done. -• The objective desideratum can be reached only by establishing a restrict ed suffrage on humane and equitable lines: and the deduction is, that however little or much the principle of voting may tie esteemed, no injustice or hard ship can be imposed by taking away front people whatever they misuse to the detriment of themselves and others. A wilful, stupid or careless child is better off without, his gift gun. Clout ed privileges arc not necessarily perpet ual porogativos. Let them have all the civil rights they want, but not suffrage. In respect ,to the Anglo-African con tingent. all native born ami identified with the industrial economy of the country, it is not denied that a consid erable per cent age of them are intelli gent voters, to whom the ballot may he as safely intrusted as to the average educated white voter. Prominent in dividuals among them, so far from de preciating restriction of suffrage, have averred that they stand ready to abet such a measure, for it would not only elevate and give consequence to such as are already qualified, hut it would stim ulate tin* efforts of worthy aspirants who might be for the nonce debarred, to earn the privilege of the ballot, and thereby to appreciate it the more. ’l'lie negro can he made, to work as cordially with the white man in eclectic politics as in the field. No race an tagonism need appear and the color line will not he drawn in campaigns to come. Mutual respect would he engendered, and while Hie laggard will remain con tent to delve, the aspirant for civic honors may win them, and deserve them, too.' Demagogues gain small footing except among an ignorant and shiftless following. Assuredly, senti ment has no place in the equation, es pecially when we behold such an in-! telligent community as the District of I Columbia cheerfully submitting to dis j franehisoment. year after year, for t i.»: take of that boon wliieh w • »> Nor'. l ! j Our Sunday Sermon 1 SAMSON-WHAT A I*ol T IIIMV j Tot ho Editor: Tho young man who writes «»me of tho bright sayings for the Nows ami Ohsorvor recently remarked that if one wished to have Samson’s hair ]„• must tirst have l*is heart: or wonts to , that effort.

A precedent of such magnitude is a sufficient- warrant fur a genera, movement on the same lines throughout all the States of the 1 nion, and at once. .'!. The treatment ami management of the suffrage should lie left to the indi vidual States, and not t«» Congress. No less than seventeen States, of which a large majority are Northern, have qualified sit ITrage; and away hack be fore the t nil oil States Constitution was amended to admit enfranchisement and universal suffrage, nearly all of taem had. It required a two-thirds vote of all the States in the Union to ratify this unwise amendment and to accom plish this many of them had to he dt.t gooned into line tinder compulsion. There is no doubt hat whatever may have been declaimed or written regard ing the extension of the suffrage to Indians and women, tin- is now a strong undercurrent of sent intent in the restrictive direction, wheteby it is hoped to minimize political i sks. and distrib ute the earth’s bounty more evenly among men. In England illiterate vot ers were disfranchised some years since by act of Parliament. 4. An elimination of the ignorant vote is necessary to good government; under which all party lines can he restored, and the economic and poliiiial issues he met as they arise, upon one’s own convictions and predilections, without one being everlastingly handicapped by the bete rtoir which has afflicted us for a full generation.' Thenceforward intelli gent and responsible voters may he either Democratic or Bepublienn, and keep respectable. There are lots of old time Whigs in the State who have had to vote with their natural opponents on tariff, tax and currency and other divid ing issues, ever since the ballot was given to the redundant negroes, who will now hurrah for their escape from political thraldom for the first time since the Civil War. But beyond all these considerations there is an ultimatum of momentous con sequence which does not seem to have been touched. Yet, the ponderating problem of the day is to adapt our rapidly increasing population to on. political system; and with it the ques tion of limited suffrage blends most in timately. Logically, where there is a diminished constituenev, as there must he where a percentage of voters is disqualified, there must he also a pro portionate reduction of represent at on in legislative councils, and if any State elect to abridge the elective franchise by specified conditions, it becomes the duty of Congress to reduce in like tiro portion the number of representatives from that State, so that, with restrict ed suffrage, the registration list becomes the basis of representation, instead of the present gross number of population. And this is healthy and requisite, for not many decades lienee the population of the United States will lie doubled. It might lie possible then fall things arc possible! for the country to harbor twice fifteen millions of votes, but it would have a hard time, and in such event the present halls of Congress could not ac commodate twice the foil • hundred legis lators which they do now o’> the |*ces ent basis of representation, -ml the people would hardly consent to pay their expenses if they did. \\ by not. hen, let all the States agree to und‘*rrakc a horizontal reduction of the voting con tingent till along tin* line and adopt a uniform plan of qualified suffrage, with a poll tax appendix as w >l l 7 CHARLES II \ LLOCK sides, three thousand tli.it were upon the roof. Samson got his hands on the pil lars whereupon the house stood, and prayed the Lord for strength: "only this once, O God. that I may he at mine avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.” llis prayer was answered: the house tumbled: "fell, upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein.” “So the dead which lie slew at his death "Every Path * Hath a Puddle 'The puddle in the pathway of most lives is a defective circulation due to a blood sup ply that instead of growing clear and strong like a moun tain brook , is stagnant and impure.

And in the story,of his life, so plainly and interestingly narrated in Judges, beginning with the b'ltli Chapter. ; 1 find nothing to commend Samson. It ] is written that, "lie judged Israel twenty | years.” Apparently he was both judge and executioner; filling the latter office in a large degree. But there are pralieal lessons to be learned from this strange being: Ist. Don’t have anything to do with Delilah: or in other words it is very dangerous for a child of (lod to come i in contact with sin only w hen the contact I is for the purpose of saving the sinner, j Sin is a Delilah. One that fans to sleep j the conscience and puts Cod’s people I with the nncircumciscd. The greatest blessing in this world is strength of character. To be strong in the Lord is thi l best strength. If you would preserve this strength go not in. the way of evil. "Blesed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly: nor standeth in the way of sinners.” There can he no real, abiding spiritual prosperity where there is lack of moral strength. 2nd. What is the good of killing people all the time when, you know you must die yourself? Samson was a miserable man when he prayed Cod: "Let me die with the Philistines.” And thus he did die. All the history wo have of him is that of killing people and destroying property. The chapters giving this his tory arc peculiar indeed to human sense. But they are a part of the Bible: and. as we do not plaee ourselves among the higher critics wo must believe the same ro be a plain statement of the facts in the Therefore, let such as spend any part of their time in killing the character and standing of their neigh bors, take heed that in their attempt to destroy others they do not destroy them selves. "One sinner destroyeth much good.” And the man or woman, who makes a business to kill influence by hurting the good name of a fellow being, is the sinner above mentioned. Instead of following the kiiling business be peacemakers. “Blessed are the peace makers for they shall he called the chil dren of Cod.” The New Testament re ligion is down on the Samsons. 3rd. It is dangerous to talk too much. Don’t tell all you Know. Samson told his wife the riddle and she told it to the young men thus enabling them to win jthe prize. Samson killed d<> men on this account and ultimately his wife was burnt. So it is not good to talk too much not even to your wife unless she knows how to hold her tongue. And then he gave the secret of nis strength to a strange woman. Os course she di vulged it; and Samson lost his eyes and finally his life. Don’t talk too much has always been good religion. One little spark will start a great conflagration. A word. even, carelessly spoken of another, may sometime start a matter that will make history. If yon take Samson for a model I fear you can never he a Chris tian, .1. (’. TUOY. THE AIE MODUS’ CONFESSION. (New York Journal.) There never was a more r markable confession of guilt than the one just offered by the Armours, the proprietors of the eelebraV'.-d Chicago dissecting rooms upon whose supplies of h of cada vers Commissary-General Eagan de trended so largely for provisions i'o;* out soldiers. The Journal some time ago published tin affidavit from Thomas F. Dolan, who had been for years the "killing sti lierint undent” for the Armours, de scribing in revolting detail the methods by which condemned meat had been packed in their establishment, the frauds practiced upon ins|ieetors, and the rcek bss disregard for decency and public health that prevailed in their operations. If these charges had been untrue the course of the 'Armours would have been simple. They would bar pilloried Dolan as a falsifier, and would have driven his perjury home in court. Instead of taking that straightforward course, the Armours confessed the truth of Dolan’s accusations by sending an emissary to hire him to unsay them. This agent took with him to Boston a ready-made affidavit repudiating the statement in the Journal, and offered him !j:r»,<lt>o to sign it. Aiding on the advice of counsel Dolan took the money in the presence of witness s, signed the fraudulent Armour affidavit, and then gave the Journal another state ment reiterating the truth of his first one and exposing the utt nipt of Eagan's Chicago friends to corrupt him. The evidence brought out before the court of inquiry is daily heaping up more horrifying details of the loathsome work of the packers with wlmnt the politicians in tin War Department con spired to feed the army on refuse meat for the price of choice beef.
